redress

Read a random definition: protestant

A quick definition of redress:

Redress means finding a way to fix a problem or make things right. It can be a way to get help or a solution to a problem. For example, if someone does something wrong and hurts someone else, they may have to pay money to make up for the harm they caused. This is called redress. It can also mean that if someone has a problem, they can find a way to fix it or get help to make things better.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Redress refers to a remedy or relief for a problem or injustice.

Examples:

  • If a customer receives a faulty product, they can seek redress by returning it for a refund or replacement.
  • If an employee is unfairly dismissed from their job, they can seek redress by taking legal action against their employer.
  • If a person's rights are violated, they can seek redress by filing a complaint with the appropriate authorities.

These examples illustrate how redress can be sought in different situations where there is a problem or injustice that needs to be addressed. Redress can take various forms, such as compensation, restitution, or legal action, depending on the nature of the problem and the available remedies.

Hey if I am on a bunch of waitlists am I screwed ?
21:39
@AlejandroAI405: Not for certain. You can get off the wait list, however it can be difficult. Would you consider reapplying next year or/and retaking the LSAT? You may drastically increase your choices/outcome(s)/and possibly get a scholarship

I genuinely do think being a reapplicant has some influence on a school’s perception of you, like we didn’t want this person before so why would we want them now? If you apply to only a couple schools your first cycle and then reapply with a higher LSAT and apply more broadly you will prob have good odds at the schools you didn’t apply to before

LMFAO why wait a year to go form UGA to chicago? You make the same biglaw salary lmfao you can get the same elite pi if you finish high, which you should if you are capable of getting chicago with a r and r. This means you advocate them not earning what they could over 4 years - 90k and study then 3 years of law or 3 years of law and then 260k salary? lmfao r and r only makes sense for FC

If someone applied with a 155 and can get a 170, a lot diff than a 168 hoping for a 172 and wasting a whole year for that
11:25
Oh i know i know i know
11:26
BUt if you want 171 r and r to get a 176+ for top FC at the top schools? okay. Everything else? Take your t25.

Scholarship dollars? Tuition + 90k income is the same or slightly less than the big law salary, but without a year of career progression.

It is not a smart move to r and r, long story short, despite what people who want you to pay for essay review and lsat tutor and lsat tutor service say

The other point I would make is that with medians rising your 3.92 GPA might be above median at your dream school one year and below the next

Both of you make valid points, but if you do not get off the W/L your only options are to R&R or just not pursue. So yea if it makes sense and you can go this year, it may be better than R&R in hopes of better prospects next yr. the devil you know is better than the angel you don't where devil is this cycle and angel is next cycel
i don't think reapplying is going to hurt you from a previously WL/denied school
just make sure you're coming with new things on your resume. maybe a higher lsat or some work experience. a school may not of wanted you this cycle, but if you come back with stronger stats, you're gonna be what they might be looking for.
overall, i'd say work on boosting your lsat though!!
